FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a door closer, and particularly to an air pressure inner circulation-type automatic compensation control door closer.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Currently, a door closer is usually mounted between a door body and a doorframe in an office or some public sites. When the door is opened, it will close automatically close due to an elastic return force of the door closer, whereby to ensure accurate and timely closing to an initial position after the door is opened and providing great convenience to people's life.

Door closers are roughly classified into hydraulic door closers and air control-type door closers according to the driving sources. Hydraulic door closers have relatively complicated internal structures and therefore are not convenient for spread and application. In the prior art, air control-type door closers are mostly used generally.

In the prior art, some people makes specific improvements to the air control-type door closer, e.g., the patent for invention No. 200720181355.0 entitled “Constant Speed Device for Door Closers”, wherein the door closer can reduce a return speed of the telescope arm, i.e., lessen the return initial speed of the door body thereby achieving the effect of closing the door at a constant speed in the whole stroke. However, air vents are provided on the wall of the cylinder of the patented invention, air constantly enters from outside. Since air entrains dusts, after a large amount of dusts is mixed to lubricant oil between the cylinder walls, the mixed lubricant oil with dusts are extremely liable to obstructions of through holes of the cylinder wall and deprives the door closer of normal operations. In addition, due to presence of a lot of dusts in the lubricant oil, the lubricating effect of the lubricant oil deteriorates and the lubricating capacity is weakened, the frictional force thereof is increased and the service life of the door closer is shortened.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

An object of the present invention is to overcome drawbacks in the prior art and provide an air pressure inner circulation-type automatic compensation control door closer which ensures air substantially flows cyclically in a cylinder body, reduces pollution caused by dusts in air into and out of the cylinder body to the lubricant oil in the cylinder wall, guarantees the lubricating effect of the lubricant oil, enables the door closer to operate normally and effectively prolong the service life of the door closer.

The working procedure of the pneumatic control-type door closure of the present invention is as follows:

FIG. 1 is a schematic view of the door closer in a stop state after the door is closed, whereupon the telescopic rod 2 retracts to a maximum extent into the interior of the cylinder body 1, the one-way air intake valve means 3 closely cooperates with the regulating valve means 4 so that the regulating valve means 4 divides the internal cavity of the cylinder body 1 into a front zone I and a rear zone II, wherein the compressed air in the rear zone II flows towards the front zone through the air vents 411 of the plunger sleeve 41 and the air flow channel 421 of the valve jacket 42, the front zone I forms an air compression zone with an maximum air amount under a tension of the sealing rubber ring of the plunger sleeve and the sealing rubber rings 54, 55, 56 of the inner cover sealing means 5, and the rear zone II forms a negative pressure vacuum zone. At this time, the door closing speed can be regulated by turning a regulating handle of the rotatable handwheel 31. Generally, when the regulating handle is rotated in a clockwise direction, the door closing speed is reduced; when the regulating handle is rotated in a counter-clockwise direction, the door closing speed is increased. The speed can be regulated as per the user's own needs for convenient use.

FIG. 3 shows a schematic view showing a state of the door closer during opening of the door. When the door is opened, the telescopic rod 2 brings the regulating valve means 4 to move forwards the front zone, whereupon while the telescopic rod 2 gradually extends, air is supplemented to the internal cavity of the cylinder body 1 from the one-way air intake valve means 3, the compressed air in the front zone I between the inner cover sealing means 5 and the regulating valve means 4 flows into a front zone air cavity between the one-way air intake valve means 3 and the regulating valve means 4 so that the amount of the compressed air in the rear zone II gradually increases. When the door is opened to a maximum extent of 90 degrees, as shown in FIG. 6, the large compression spring 6 is compressed to a maximum deformation amount, the door is opened to the maximum extent and the compressed air in the rear zone II air cavity reaches a maximum amount.

As shown in FIG. 7, the door closes automatically, the telescopic rod 2 retracts due to an elastic return force of the large compression spring 6, the one-way air intake valve means 3 is in a gas sealed state and will not release the compressed air in the rear zone II and substantially maintains the air amount in the cylinder body 1 to enable the gas in the cylinder body 1 to be used cyclically. When the telescopic rod 2 returns slowly due to the return force of the large compression spring 6, the compressed air in the rear zone II flows towards the front zone I through the air flow channel 421 of the valve jacket 42, the air vent 411 of the plunger sleeve 41 and the air gap III. Since the compressed air in the rear zone II flows slowly into the front zone I, the telescopic rod 2 returns at a low speed upon returning and exhibits a better damping effect, thereby avoiding hurt of any person due to a sudden shut, reduce the door closing noise, preventing possible damages to the door body and the door frame due to great impingement of the door body when closed to the door frame, and ensuring the service life of the door.

The door closer according to the present invention is adapted for a door body of any structure, mounted in a currently common mounting manner, generally mounted on a doorhead position in a way that a fixing end of the telescopic rod 2 is mounted on a top position of the door body and one end portion of the cylinder body 1 is mounted on the doorframe or between the doorframe.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. If various modifications or variations to the present invention do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention and fall within the scope of claims of the present invention and equivalent technologies, the present invention also contains these modifications and variations.
